Hikes

We have 6,600 kilometres of hiking trails! Whether you just enjoy walking, middle mountain hiking or you are an experienced hiker, there are all levels of difficulty, from the gentle walk to a great trek, at altitudes from 200 to 3,000 metres.

A website and a mobile app dedicated to hiking activities

You can consult it on your computer, tablet or your Smartphone and there are a large number of itineraries which are characteristic of the Alpes de Haute Provence for the 5 activities: walking, riding, mountain biking, cycletouring and trail running.

You can also download the app for increased mobility. You are automatically geo-localized – your position appears on the map and you can choose your activity: walking, riding, cycling, mountain biking or trail running.

When you have chosen your itinerary, download the description and the map and set off on your excursion (offline) using the GPS on your device!
